Angels and Demons Poster
Here is one of the final release posters for Ron Howard's second film in author Dan Brown's mega-book franchise Angels and Demons.

I love this poster. It has my favorite color theme going on in it: black, red, and white. Tom Hanks in black standing in a circle of red with black on the crowd around the perimeter and the white breaking through the dark clouds in the distance. Wonderful!

MTV Reports Danny Elfman to Score Terminator Salvation

Danny ElfmanMTV Exclusive: Cast your expectations aside for the score to May’s "Terminator Salvation." Danny Elfman has confirmed exclusively for MTV News that he will be composing the music for McG's new post-nuclear-holocaust Terminator installment of the blockbuster franchise.

"I just started yesterday," Elfman told MTV News from the red carpet of the Critics' Choice Awards. The Academy Award nominated composer from films like "Good Will Hunting," "The Corpse Bride" and "Batman" indicated that the original "Terminator" theme by composer Brad Fiedel was not in use yet; nor is there mandate to incorporate the classic symphonic hook. He did, however, leave the door open for its appearance.

"I think if it comes up and it seems appropriate, we will [use it]," Elman said. "And if it doesn’t, we [won't]. I never really know what to expect when I begin other than just kind of get into it and have fun. Especially a movie like "T4" – just have fun. So that's what I intend to do."
